Ceramic photographed 1972 by Quinn for the book: Ramié, Georges. "Céramique de Pablo Picasso", Cercle d'art, Paris 1974.

Photographed by Edward Quinn in 1972 for Georges Ramié's book, "Céramique de Pablo Picasso," this stylized ceramic pitcher by the artist is shaped like a bird. The vessel's matte, earthy surface is adorned with bold, black, cubist-style decorations suggesting an eye and wings. Set against a dark background, the piece is lit from the side to highlight the three-dimensional curves of its bulbous body, flared base, and gracefully arched handle.
